All Revit plugins developed by DiRoots are free, simple and very useful.

Typical workflow:

Create a Sheet Template

The first step is to create one or several Sheet Templates that will be used to generate the new Drawing Sheets and later place the desired Views on them. A Sheet template is simply a Sheet with some views in place.
Create new Sheets

Choose the number of Sheets and pick a Sheet Template.
Edit the Sheets Parameters

Add Revit project Parameters to Sheets. You can use Excel to change parameters’ values (Sheet Number, Sheet Name, etc.)
Place the Views on the Sheets based on the assigned Template

SheetGen gives you again the power and flexibility of Excel to handle this task.
Easily manage the Sheets Revisions

Once again, it’s also possible to perform this process in Excel.
Use the View Manager

SheetGen also provides you an independent View Manager. The View Manager can be used to duplicate or remove Views and to modify their parameters.
